[CAUTION: The Covid-19 pandemic continues to be a serious public health threat. With the phased-in return to public worship, we will do all we can to diminish the risk, but any kind of public gathering presents some degree of risk. Those who are at "high risk" from exposure to the virus should consider remaining home except for essential travel. The state plan defines “high risk” individuals as those with underlying medical conditions, including, chronic lung disease, asthma, heart conditions, severe obesity, chronic kidney disease, or others who are immunocompromised.
Need to Reserve a Seat for 4pm Saturday & Sunday Morning Mass
-- The current COVID-19 plan by the State of Kansas for reopening the society recommends a 6-foot minimum distancing between persons or groups not living together, thus the number of people that can be seated at any given Mass is limited,
so reserving a pew is necessary--

It is no longer necessary to reserve a seat for weekday Masses or for the Sunday 5pm Mass. However, it is recommended that masks be worn, hands sanitized before and after Mass and six-foot social distance be maintained between individuals who are not part of the same household. This is recommended at all Masses.
The Plan to Phase in Public Worship
Public Masses have resumed in a limited fashion. Due to the distancing requirements to limit the spread of the virus that causes Covid-19, capacity at all Masses will be limited.
Dispensation from Sunday Obligation:
The dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass remains in effect, so there is no canonical obligation to be physically present on Mass at this time. Mass will continue to be livestreamed each Sunday, at 8:30am.
Sunday Public Mass Times (starting May 9th) :
Saturday 4pm, (FM broadcast for car radios)
Sunday, 8:30am (Livestreamed, FM broadcast to those who remain in cars)
Sunday, 11am (FM broadcast for car radios)
Sunday, 5pm (FM broadcast for car radios)
Holy Communion will be offered at each Mass for those in the church and for those in the parking lot at the usual time during Mass. (Only form single-file Communion line, observing 6 ft spacing, inside and outside.)
Requirements for Attending Mass in the Church:
Those attending public Mass should review the Archdiocesan Safety Protocols for Resuming Public Worship. A copy can be viewed HERE.
